Hi all, it was suggested that I post this here. Please let me know if this isn't the appropriate place. :)
I'm using an ASUS Radeon 9800XT (ASUS branded ATI 9800 w/ Vivo, etc): http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NTUy I'm running with it on an ASUS A7V333 motherboard and Fedora Core 6. I am trying to use the 'radeon' driver that comes with Xorg. However, X will not even start up -- the system hangs and I have to hard reset typically. I have also tried with the latest version of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (live CD). I cannot even get into the GUI at all when booting off the CD. I can only assume the 'radeon' driver is being loaded and the same thing occurs as under Fedora. As soon as I disable dri (alias radeon off in modprobe.conf) I can start X without any problem albeit without DRI. Reenable DRI and X hard locks up again. I'm beginning to wonder if this is a symptom specifically related to my ASUS branded ATI card and not your normal ATI 9800XT... I've filed a bug with RH/Fedora here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230524 And have attached my xorg.conf files and various dumps per the RH developer's requests. Thus far they are puzzled, but perhaps some of you can glean somethign useful from my filing. Any suggestions or thoughts on my issue? Happy to provide whatever information requested or to file a formal bug with you guys. TIA, Ray ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
